Am She's the maid of the river C So beautifully plain G As fresh as the country Am That gave her her name Am As crisp as the snow C And as swift as the rain G She shone like the sun Am Before all of our games Am She shone like a jewel C But her price was not gold G She cried more than most Am When her story was told Am But her people were evil C Left her baron and cold G And her heart went to market Am Where her body was sold Chorus Am Am/C C I said hey hey won't you take me away G Because I can't see the point Am In the dawn of the day Am C When so many killers gonna take you away G Am And leave little left except hatred E She's the goddess of love Am The goddess in green E The goddess of all Am That I've ever seen E Goddess of hope Am The goddess in brown E The goddess of all That you've burned to the ground Chorus (repeat chord sequence throughout ) There's all kind of hatred Flows out of man's hands There's the hatred that strangles The throat of a man But the worst of all hatred Is that which is planned Against what we have In this goddess of land Chorus
